Hello,

nice to hear. I had a look from all sides but it seemed the SGE master thought the queues on the hosts were full.
This morning when I looked I saw only willow doing some jobs - ortelius still 
having this strange state.
I waited for Merl to advise me probably reconfiguring but it was too early this 
morning and I simply deleted some (5 i think)
jobs from the queues that were issued on 9th Oct when user-store failed.

I felt the users might probably not wait for this job until now anyway and 
hoped the queues would regenerate as they were modified.
This seems to have solved the problem to my luck ;) as in the logs it seems the 
jobs were running fine then.

Cheers
        nosy

@All: If you are working on big files please copy them to local
 temp first (on sge $TMP contains an individual temp dir for
the job). E.g. piping big files to other slow programs causes
much nfs load because data must be read in small packages which
cause high load on servers. That's why sge cannot schedule new
jobs on nightshade since days.

What is a big file? Is it ok if the file is in user-home?

Thanks and greetings DrTrigon

/home is also mounted with nfs

Although it's strange that reading from big files overloads the
servers. stdio or the equivalent functionality in the language
they are made should be making it work in blocks.

Looking at willow mounts, /shared and /home are mounted with nfsv3
over udp. But /mnt/user-store and /install don't show it, so they
are probably using nfsv4 over tcp. Is that intended?
